I can't believe there are just random guys named Joe in NYC Bars trading fake BAST art cards. Awesome. Have never run into one of those in Vegas.

The reason many people are having any doubts to BAST's side of the story and thinking there must be more to it is because it sounds too ridiculous to be true, and too stupid a "crime" for anyone to do not thinking they'd get caught.

I wouldn't worry too much about his personal info being posted. Not that I necessarily agree with it. I highly doubt that a crazed BAST fan is gonna go over there and murder him in cold blood. He might get one of those flaming bags of crepe though.

I don't want to do any more business with this person, although I have in the past on ebay. For the Obama fakes alone, this guy is a POS.

It's on the Bast site (http://www.bastny.com/frame_controle.pl?goto=frame_body_set_v1.html&menu_select=news), see the email addresses at the bottom.

Looks like Bast took the actual addresses down but left city and zip... One of the addresses had an apt number so i assumed it was a residence.

I've sold things to Leo and he had them delivered to the address that Bast posted and a different address.

Just another example of how you can be anyone you want hiding behind many miles of wire and a computer screen. :P

And that is more than enough "evidence" for me to believe.


P.S. - Nice MURS avatar, noetic.

It's funny that he has a Murs avatar and lives in San Diego. Murs hates San Diego, or so I've heard.

Perhaps 'hate" is too strong a word, maybe dislikes is more fitting. How come he is almost never at any of the Legends shows in San Diego?

Anyone seen these/have any?

Signed/limited to 25 of each design in each color (how I read it anyway)

I guess they've been available since April 2006. I was surprised something of BASTs was still up after this long at such a cheap price for a signed item (even though they're wristbands and cuffs.... lol)

I got a set....

I just got word that these were given to the wrecords by monkey store by a guy named Joe in a bar.

No but seriously, I don't think they look that bad. Not that I'd ever wear them or anything, but I thought at $140 for such a limited set of 3 signed pieces by one of my favorite artists it was a steal!

Guess I'm alone there. haha
